Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
hotel like any other, price too high for the quality. It is very unprofessional that the lady at the reception desk does not understand that people come to the hotel tired after a hard day and want to rest, and not stand and wait while watching a hotel employee struggle with easy check-in procedures. I waited almost an hour to get my keys to 7 rooms, before me only one person took only one room.. Horror! My people and I almost decided that we would sleep in the reception desk, because it looked like they would not have time to print our keys by morning. The refrigerators in the rooms work so well that we had to throw all our food in the trash the next day because they were defrosted and wet. They cost us more than this night. Please do not respond to this complaint that we are sorry and next time you come back to us it will be better. Because I don't believe in it. You probably have such a work system and you won't change. If you want to take a room in this hotel and you want to go to bed at 10 pm, start checking in at 4-5 pm

A Good Choice
Great alternative to a vacation home rental for a short stay. We stayed in the one bedroom with a living room. It was very comfortable & relaxing. The breakfasts were typical hotel fare—scrambled eggs, sausage, biscuits, gravy, waffles, pastries, cereals, juices, etc. Very clean—easy location.
